  • 5/5 from Meghan Oloughlin, attended Aug 2025: This workshop was even better than I had anticipated. Abigail is a wonderful artist and teacher and creates a welcoming and relaxing environment, I learnt so much and am thrilled with my painting, and will definitely be back!
  • 5/5 from Martyn Hanlon, attended Jun 2025: Many thanks to Abi for making the oil painting master class such an enjoyable experience. Having never used oils before, I now feel totally confident to use this medium going forward. The class covered everything you need to know and by the end included a still life work to take home. Highly recommended and wonderful location alongside the river.
  • 5/5 from Ines Hamdani, attended May 2025: I had always wanted to give oil painting a try but I was a bit hesitant. Thanks to Abi I now feel more confident. She walked us through the basics (preparing your palette, mixing paint, cleaning brushes...). I now have a better understanding of oil painting and can see myself paint at home more comfortably. I had such a great time! You learn a lot and relax at the same time. 100% Recommend!!!
  • 5/5 from Linda Greenwood, attended May 2025: This class is a fun way to try oil painting. Abi was a great teacher and gave us a lot of information, tips, encouragement and guidance as we painted along with her to produce our own little works of art. I really enjoyed it.

  • 5/5 from Josie Ford, attended Feb 2025: Fantastic day, Abi is such a great teacher. Very kind and informative, I learnt such a lot about painting with oils which I have never tried before. Would highly recommend and can’t wait to go back for another workshop. 10 out of 10 from me.
  • 5/5 from Helena Spooner, attended Feb 2025: Really loved this class! It gave me a really good grounding in how to work with oils - we all painted from the same reference painting (which changes every few classes) which meant we were shown the technique step by step. The vibes were also lovely and relaxing and cozy, would recommend as a great activity to do while catching up with a friend! Bonus points for the adorable dog
  • 5/5 from Matthew Bowen, attended Feb 2025: Had a blast! Loved the cosy atmosphere and Abi was lovely, helped us create some cool paintings.
  • 5/5 from Michelle Richardson, attended Jan 2025: Great class. Abi is brilliant! She’s encouraging and teaches you the techniques you’ll need to master. Really pleased with my progress in just one class!
  • 5/5 from Sophie Buckley, attended Sep 2024: Abi was an amazing teacher and did a fantastic job of answering questions, guiding me along with my painting and showing me how to mix paints. I appreciated that she was always willing to break down and explain steps of the process whenever I asked. I’ve also enjoyed continuing with my painting after our session and felt well prepared to do so. Thank you so much, Abi. :)
  • 5/5 from David Walker, attended Aug 2024: A very enjoyable class learning the new skill of oil painting with a lovely teacher.
  • 5/5 from Julita, attended May 2024: My friend and I did an oil painting class with Abigail. We absolutely loved the experience! It was a small intimate class so the teacher gave us all the attention and guided us patiently through the intricacies of using oils for the first time. We have learnt so much! Plus we produced a complete painting each to take home. Thanks, Abigail, we will book classes with you again! X
  • 5/5 from Kylie Milne, attended Mar 2024: I learned so much in one short class, Abi was charming, patient and so talented, with just the right amount of guidance. I had a blast Thanks so much Abi, I highly recommended and will go again in a heart beat.
